Where to begin? I love this writing style, btw. It feels really personal and sorta like I'm one of Kenny's friends - "good friends" - and he's telling me all this stuff. The problems are all real, and you conveyed them amazingly, which is sorta hard to do. And I applaud you for breaking from the cliched-ness of all stories based around gay couples or something like that :) beautiful

This must be the best short story I've encountered in ages. Your voice is magnificent and so full of personality. Kenny's inner monologues were quite entertaining. I love how you took the "falling for best friend" cliche and punched it in the face, showing that people can and do move on. Thank you for sharing your talents, and you can be sure I'm going to check out some of your other stuff.

I probably should check out the next two chapters before I say anything about updating, so I'll just critique this chapter to say your writing style is amazing. What fanfictions do you write and for? c:

I loved your format! I loved how he was talking to me, not just sharing what was going on, but actually talking to me. It made it that much more relateable (no that I can put myself in his shoes but still!). The story had great moments of laughter, even though it was really short, I still enjoyed it very much! Thanks a bunch for sharing the story with us u

...so THAT's why women wear high heels. I thought it was for extra height and a craving for foot pain! (4 inches sounds like quite a bit too, even if it's a "give-up" on 5-inchers. Brr.) At last I'm safe to skip them with good conscience. ;)

These stories are just incredibly educative. I had this Agatha Christie innocence level detective agency in Botswana book going on and I just haven't looked its way at all, reading this transgender/gay/etc stuff all day instead. Almost done with The Girl For Me, but I figure I'll have to review it once it's been appropriately finished.

And from that comparison, I got to thinking that maybe the big thing about this stuff is that it's _different_, a look into a life you can't just imagine from personal experience. It's what makes depictions of old Botswana interesting when coming from the north (even if the author didn't actually live exactly there etc), and it's what makes transgender and gay romances - in the style you write them, particularly, where the characters actually have to wade through a lot of the muck that is more or less regular life - fascinating.

And it doesn't hurt to get into this "omg, he's giving *me* invaluable advice on how to turn down a come-on from someone now" mode - these people do come alive, it's like the news announcer talking directly to me illusion, but in prose. (Even if the critical evaluation of the advisory material gets turned on between stories. ;))

I better hit send before I lose this on some random network failure, and continue in the next review. Thanks for this!

HAHA omg i love your way of thinking man the locker scene... gah! embarasing! and the car/ park scene? gah... i hate it when the charachters do embarasing things they would regret later... but then wuts a good story without em? lol love how u ended it agin though! lol u have awesome endings...

I haven't read the rest of it yet, but I really like your style. It feels like the character is real, and whereas it could have felt rushed in certain parts with the plot moving so quickly, you somehow made it work.

The guy is pretty funky and multidimensional. It honestly kept my interest throughout the whole thing, which is very rare for me. Actually, at first I thought it would be old and tired (no offense) from reading the introductory things, but the style you've used cancels the overused story-line (though, personally, I don't think that applies in romance, because it's inevitable).

That said, I've not finished reading the whole story, but my appreciation for this chapter still stands. :D

Oh, I forgot: "Kawaii!"...I know that is your favorite type of review...just kidding, of course.

something kinda like this happened to my best friend (including the getting forced into wearing female clothing thing) but nope the ending is... well, really different and my friend's still schooling, so.. lol.

(I don't know how to reply to your reply to my last review so i'll post it here)

Thanks for the reply to my review, hehe. And I went for the shorter stories first because I was -supposed- to get to sleep that night... Still happened later than expected.

Your writing is -definitely- worth my time, I just have to find the actual time to read the longer stories. I will eventually! Also eventual publication would be awesome, you certainly are better than a bunch of published writers out there. As for older work... GAWD I look at my old crap and cringe. You can take a look at my page if you ever have time... Half of them were written in middle school.
